This semester, Topeka First UMC kids are "Under Construction...God at Work!"
Construction sites are exciting places, filled with interesting, heavy machinery and abuzz with noise and activity. When we accept Jesus, God begins a good work in us. We become the construction site where God is building something amazing!
To uderstand the story of the Tower of Babel, we built differnt types of towers.
Here we built marshmallow toothpick towers--without a permit!
We tried using magnetic tiles to build towers...
But, we really liked using marshmallows & toothpicks to try to build a tower.
The Kids at Topeka First, have been learning to be Super Heros! We are training hard, using our Superpowers that God gives us, to learn Bible Verses. Each week, we have been learning a different verse. Our super powers that God has given us are – Prayer, Peace, Joy, Faith, Life, Trust, Invisibility, Replication, and Invincibility. Each week, we use different skills to learn new Bible Verses. The pictures below show us:
Using our superfast skills, to say all of our Bible Verses before the spinner stops.
With super powers like Batman, we were aiming to hit scripture on the wall. We then said the Bible verse closest to where it landed.
Using our time travel powers, we rolled a marble through a Bible verse that is in a maze.
With superspeed, we lined up all the words in a Bible verse in order.
Using our superpower, agility, we took aim and landed on parts of the scripture, in order of the verse.
With superhuman strength, we built our Bible Verse in a structures, using straw and paper. And then we worked on our speed putting our Bible Verse together.
